Nanyang Technological University Library ABSTRACT While the Federal Constitution of Malaysia readily proclaims Islam to be Malaysia’s official religion, opinions have fiercely diverged among legal scholars and practitioners as to how substantive should the relevant clause on this be interpreted. Such vagueness is typical of the document, whose drafting took place amidst intense negotiations among Malaysia’s multi-racial communities, resulting in an informal bargain or ‘social contract’ which until today has become a subject of bitter dispute amidst rising polarisation along ‘Muslim versus non-Muslim’ lines. Locating origins of contemporaneous legal conflict to divergent understandings of constitutional clauses, this article proceeds to discuss contemporary controversies which shed light on Malaysia’s struggle to identify itself as a nation-state which integrates the best of both modern and Islamic civilisations. It is argued that this delicate balance has been recently threatened by the increasing penetration of a form of orthodox Islamist legalism which antagonises non-Muslim minorities and unduly homogenises its Malay-Muslim population. ***************** Dr. Ahmad Fauzi Abdul Hamid is Senior Lecturer in Political Science at the School of Distance Education (SDE), Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), Penang, Malaysia and Visiting Fellow at the Contemporary Islam Programme, S.

Nanyang Technological University Library ISLAMIC LAW IN CONTEMPORARY MALAYSIA: PROSPECTS AND PROBLEMS Historical Background It has been widely established that Islam in Malaysia locates its provenance to thirteenth century peripatetic Sufi missionaries whose trading guilds simultaneously played the role of fronts for proselytisation.1 As the indigenous Malays were then deeply steeped in Hindu-Buddhist and animist traditions, the Sufis prioritised social over politico-legal transformation. Many elements of the pre-Islamic customs were initially incorporated as part of early Malay-Muslim polity, giving rise to the once- popular view of Malaysian Islam as being imbued with syncretic qualities. Islam in traditional Malay society has not uncommonly been discussed in terms of constant tension between shari’a (Islamic law) and adat (customary law).2 In terms of legal systems, as documented by Winstedt,3 contradictions between the shari’a and indigenous legal digests of pre-colonial Malay states abound. Nevertheless, there was evidence of the politico-legal structures of medieval Malay states gradually being Islamised, such that by 1908, wrote colonial administrator R.J. Wilkinson, “There can be no doubt that Moslem law would have ended by becoming the law of Malaya had not British law stepped in to check it….”4. This checking came in the form of treaties between the British and Malay states which bound Malay rulers into accepting a ceremonial role as protector of Islam and Malay custom. Clause VI of the Anglo-Perak Pangkor Treaty of 1874 - a model for subsequent British treaties with other Malay states, specified that a British Resident's advice “must be asked and acted upon on all questions other than those touching Malay religion and custom”.5 Malays’ individual lives were thereafter 1 Ahmad Fauzi Abdul Hamid ‘The Impact of Sufism in Pre-colonial Malaysia: An Overview of Interpretations’, Islamic Studies, vol. 41, no. 3 (2002), pp. 467-493. 2 Roy F.

  • KEEPING the FAITH: PM Puts Reputation on the Line Brendan Pereira February 15, 2006 New Straits Times
    KEEPING THE FAITH: PM puts reputation on the line Brendan Pereira February 15, 2006 New Straits Times Feb 14: YESTERDAY was not about the ebullient Datuk Effendi Norwawi being hoisted onto the political mainstage once again, two years after his health scare. It was not about International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Rafidah Aziz proving that there is life after the Approved Permits fiasco. It was not about Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor showing that there is no such thing as political oblivion in Malaysian politics. It was about Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi putting his reputation on the line and banking on 33 ministers and 39 deputy ministers to deliver big over the next two years. The stakes are high for the ruling coalition, and for the man who currently occupies the top job in the country. Fail, and the consequences will be grave. He knows that the reservoir of goodwill which followed the Barisan Nasional’s grand election victory in 2004 is emptying. He knows that after the pundits and armchair critics have exhausted all their arguments in coffee houses, the only thing that would really matter in Malaysia is this — whether the economy is humming. He is aware that the next 24 months will define how well he is judged and how well the BN fares in the next election. There will be little wiggle room for Abdullah and his band of ministers. Day One of their task will be on March 31 — the day the Ninth Malaysia Plan is tabled. Privately, Abdullah likes to use this analogy when describing the challenge that lies ahead for him and his team.
